RETIRING at 65? Sounds incredible
For lakhs of government employees who are hoping that the UPA-II
may raise the retirement age of government employees to 62 years, the 10th
June’s cabinet decision to raise the Nursing teachers’ retirement age to 65 is a
healthy sign that their dream may too come true in the next few years.
The decision appears like an isolated case, but the Union Cabinet’s approval to
the increase superannuation age from 60 years to 65 years for the nursing
teaching faculty with MSc in nursing in Central government nursing institutions,
may bring hopes to many government employees approaching the retirement age.
The decision,
however, came with a justification which said that there is an acute shortage of
nursing teachers with post-graduate degree in nursing. As a large number of
posts of teachers with MSc (Nursing) are lying vacant in the Central government
Nursing Institutions, and there has been a high attrition rate, this move may
prevent further exodus of nursing teachers.
Yet, it gives enough room for many government employees to probably hope and
pray that the retirement age for all government employees may go upto 62.
